WHAT WILL IT COST?

What Will It Cost?

Most people avoid hiring a lawyer because they think they all charge by the hour and at astronomical rates. Actually, in personal injury and medical malpractice cases, lawyers work on a contingent fee basis. What that means is the attorney only gets paid if he or she wins money damages for you, the client. The fee agreement is usually a percentage of the amount recovered. This makes it possible for anyone to hire only the best lawyer. It gives everyone access to the justice system and representation that is equal to the best that insurance companies, doctors and other defendants can hire.
